Community

I have found many sources of community while being at Longwood. I found my first and closest community in the Cormier Honors College. I have also grown close to my work community, at Au Bon Pain, where I have had the privilege of befriending some of the residents of Farmville along with my student-coworkers. In my sophomore year, I joined BCM where I was able to grow my campus community and I started to attend a local church. In my junior year, I was an executive member of the Big Event in which we organized a safe way to give back to the local community despite the pandemic. We were able to collect money in town and on campus that we used to purchase dinner for local ER healthcare workers.
